Technical Abstract

A riser card module includes a riser card and a mounting rack. The riser card is inserted in a slot of a main board vertically and has a first hook member arranged on the side of the slot. The mounting rack includes an upright board and an engagement member. The upright board mounts the riser card in parallel. The engagement member has a mounted portion, a force portion, and a hook portion. The mounted portion is mounted on the upright board. The force portion and the mounted portion form a predetermined angle. The hook member is connected on the force portion and has a second hook member hooking on the first hook member. When the force portion is pressed toward a direction reducing the predetermined angle, the second hook member is disengaged from the first hook member.

2. The riser card module of claim 1 , wherein the mounting rack further comprises a top board vertically connected to the side of the upright board opposite to the main board.

3

3. The riser card module of claim 2 , wherein the mounting rack further comprises a handle pivoted on the mounting rack so that the handle parallel with the top board or rotated with respect to the top board with an regular angle.

4

4. The riser card module of claim 3 , wherein the handle further comprises a protrusion protruded with respect to the force portion, when the handle rotated with respect to the top board, the protrusion pressing the force portion towards the direction reducing the predetermined angle.

5

5. The riser card module of claim 4 , wherein the protrusion protruded from the handle vertically.

6

6. A riser card module, comprising: a riser card inserted in a slot of a main board vertically, the slot having a first hook member arranged on the side of the slot; and a mounting rack connected to the riser card, the mounting rack comprising: an upright board mounting the riser card in parallel; and an engagement member having a mounted portion, a force portion and a hook portion, the mounted portion and the force portion formed a V-shape structure, and the mounted portion mounted on the upright board, the hook member connected on the V-shape structure and the hook member having a second hook member hooking on the first hook member, when the force portion pressed toward a direction reducing the included angle of the V-shape structure, the second hook member disengaged from the first hook member.

7

7. The riser card module of claim 6 , wherein the mounting rack further comprises a top board vertically connected to the side of the upright board opposite to the main board.

8

8. The riser card module of claim 7 , wherein the mounting rack further comprises a handle pivoted on the mounting rack so that the handle parallel with the top board or rotated with respect to the top board with an regular angle.

9

9. The riser card module of claim 8 , wherein the handle further comprises a protrusion protruded with respect to the force portion, when the handle rotated with respect to the top board, the protrusion pressing the force portion towards the direction reducing the included angle of the V-shape structure.
